I wonder if this Vegeta ghost might have enough presence of mind to turn on Raichi like Majin Vegeta did against Babidi. It would be a neat twist to Bardock's prediction.

So there wasn't even any point to the ass-pull SS3 transformation.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

... :D

How much do you want to bet that the "real" Vegeta is going to kill Raichi instead? Just like how Majin Vegeta wouldn't listen to a thing Babidi said? :lol:

Sure there was. It just makes it that much funnier when Vegeta still loses to Raichi. I mean, Salagir has somewhat of a dark sense of humor, so that's how I kind of took that transformation. Like "holy moly, you're gonna win, OH WAIT, no you're not...".

There were tons of pointless transformations and events in the official manga. The difference is that the official manga was released on a chapter-by-chapter basis, so the pointless event cycles were spread out over chapters. DBM is released on a page-by-page basis, so the cycle only lasts like two or three pages at most.

It wasn't pointless. It dragged the fight to the most dramatic point where both fighters are almost dead, DBZ style.

I can't help but wonder why Vegeta hasn't tried to attack Raichi's orb yet.

Which has been the whole point of the whole fan manga from the start. Salagir even said so in the first page of this topic. Fan service in a coherent and logical setting is the whole point. Not sure why some expect something else.

I would love if "real" Vegeta turned on Raichi, but, i doubt it''s gonna happen, it would be too far fetched.

Hmm I'm curious to see how Ghost-Vegeta achieved SSJ. I assumed U3 Bardock got it over the grief of losing his entire race to Raichi. If Vegeta became SSJ before he became a ghost, wouldn't he have challenged Bardock? Wouldn't Bardock also have access to SSJ before the genocide to prevent Vegeta from taking over? If there were two Super Saiyans before Raichi came out of the rock he was under, how were the Saiyans killed?

And man, I do love irony. Whoever said this is how it would all end, get yourself a cookie, you effing called it.

Besides fan service....no I don't think so.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Damn... This is crazy and all Vegeta can say about this is... "Fuck". Lol this is great.

I'm probably one of few (here at least) that hardly has a problem with anything DBM has done so far. I kinda figure from the beginning that this entire concept was just a "by us, for us" fan service type of deal. The only thing I'm kinda bothered by is that Salagir said that Goku and Vegeta aren't all that much stronger from how they were in the Boo arc. It's been fifteen years since Boo was killed and neither of them have much to show for it? Atleast the the moment.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

I'm wondering about the whole U3 Vegeta turning on Raichi as well.

Maybe he wasn't SS before dieing, or not a very powerful one. The ghost are supposed to be more powerful right? Plus we already saw a SS Broly as well, and 4th form Cold and 5th form Freeza and Cooler.

I doubt Ghost Warrior Vegeta is going to turn on Raichi. My impression of the "Ghost Warriors" is that they're not literally the spirits of dead fighters or anything, just something created by Raichi in the image of (and copying the abilities of) those who he's seen defeated before. They don't really have a will of their own.
If there were two Super Saiyans before Raichi came out of the rock he was under, how were the Saiyans killed?
Hatchiyack? Just being Super Saiyan doesn't automatically put you at somewhere upwards of Movie 8 Broly level, after all.

As badly as I want Vegeta to win, I'll actually would be strangely satisfied if he was killed by his ghost self. It's just so deliciously ironic.
